Eurovision Fact #338:

Eurovision songs have snuck their way into the popular children's program Sesame Street many times.

In 1978, a Sesame Street LP was released entitled 'Sing Sang Song Singalong,' which featured the 1976 German Eurovision entry, 'Sing, Sang, Song' by Les Humphries Singers. In 2010, the Danish production of Sesame Street, Sesamgade, aired an episode that featured Elmo dancing to the 1979 Danish entry 'Disco Tango's by Tommy Seebach.

Muppet Fact #925

At the 2023 Game Awards, Gonzo presented the award for Best Debut Indie Game with Geoff Keighley. He said he's been playing Tears of the Kingdom. He lost days following a Cucco up the hill. He also has a conspiracy that a lot of games released this year follow a chicken theme.

What screams, cries, laughs, and looks like a muppet? That’s right, it’s the Tawny Frogmouth (Podargus strigoides). Its vocalizations range from deep grunts to loud hisses and have been likened to a crying baby! Found in Australia, this nocturnal bird is a sit-and-wait predator—meaning that it waits for dinner to deliver itself. As a result, it can spend hours at a time remaining perfectly still. When motionless, its mottled plumage resembles the bark of a tree. But as prey approaches, this bird strikes, descending on nearly silent wings.

today I found out that there was a 1983 memo sent out during Fraggle Rock's pre-production about Muppet performances and it included this helpful illustration

If I got to have a physical feature as weird as this I'd use it as the only conversation starter with everyone. everywhere. ALL. DAY.

#the fact that suddenly this muppet has five fingers scares me the most though #but yeah should i mutate myself a second thumb like what icebreaker am i supposed to use now? #'did you know that i have asymmetrical eyes?' - PATHETIC! #bobs burgers #bob's burgers #roamin' bob iday

Every time an opposing team decides to overwhelmingly hate on Jake I remember the I think it’s from yohe tweet where he’s like “pound for pound no one talks more shit on the ice than Jake Guentzel”

Muppet Fact #938

According to Brian Henson, "Inside the Muppet Company, [they] love to hate Bean Bunny." This is why he is often the subject of so much Muppet violence.

No, it’s not a muppet. This unforgettable primate, found in the mangrove forests of Borneo, is the proboscis monkey (Nasalis larvatus)! Also known as the long-nosed monkey, males of this species sport a distinctive drooping proboscis, which acts like a resonating chamber to amplify their vocalizations. Scientists think it’s a sexually selected trait—meaning that females prefer louder (and bigger-nosed) mates.
